Question

Two side-by-side shaded ovals labeled x and y each display a list of values. Four arrows point from the values in the left oval, x, to the values in the right oval, y.

Which equation describes the function shown in the mapping diagram?

Responses

f(y)=12x−8
f left parenthesis y right parenthesis equals Start Fraction 1 over 2 End Fraction x minus 8

f(x)=8x−12
f left parenthesis x right parenthesis equals 8 x minus Start Fraction 1 over 2 End Fraction

f(y)=8x−12
f left parenthesis y right parenthesis equals 8 x minus Start Fraction 1 over 2 End Fraction

f(x)=12x−8
f left parenthesis x right parenthesis equals Start Fraction 1 over 2 End Fraction x minus 8

Answer 1

To determine the equation that describes the function shown in the mapping diagram, we need to analyze how the values in oval x relate to the values in oval y based on the arrows connecting them.

1. Check how each value in oval x is transformed to get to each corresponding value in oval y.
2. Use this information to derive the mathematical function/formula that describes the transformation.

Unfortunately, without visual information from the image you're referring to, I cannot pinpoint the exact equation. If you could provide the specific values in ovals x and y, or describe how they relate to each other, I'd be happy to help you find the correct function!
